TODO: Find a way to avoid reprocessing > ;; 'shared-mime-info', which is the most expensive one. > [...] > (invoke #+(file-append shared-mime-info > "/bin/update-mime-database") > destdir))))))) ‘shared-mime-info’ contains ‘share/mime/freedesktop.org.xml’, which is by far where ‘update-mime-database’ spends most of its time. But it’s wasteful because ‘shared-mime-info’ already contains the result of running ‘update-mime-database’ on itself. HTH! Ludo’.
